I peeked at my side, looking at the beautiful lady who was sleeping soundly by the other side of the bed. It seemed that she has grown accustomed to having me in her presence, looking at how she didn't complain about sharing a bed with me, which she would do so had it been a few weeks ago.
The candlelight from the lamp stationed on the bedside table fell upon her face, allowing me to take in her features better amidst the dimness of the room. Her jade green eyes that enchanted me from the very first glance were closed, while her long lashes dusted on the upper part of her cheeks. She looked so peaceful—and pure. I couldn't resist a smile as I took sight of the adorable woman before me. It was now that I realized just how badly I've been missing her.
It felt aggravating knowing that people had the heart to hurt someone like her, someone so innocent. It was my concern to fathom why people just couldn't seem to get their hands off my woman. What did she even do to them?
